MAX, I'm 75 with 3 compression disks in my lower back. I get very little exercise. Sept. 6 I was 273 lbs today I'm at 241. Was on 6 prescription drugs. Today drug free and getting better every day. Thanks to you and Dr. Westman, Dr. Berry keep making videos, I'll keep watching

I can honestly say everything he discusses here is absolutely true. If you’re considering carnivore or just starting just use willpower for a couple weeks and then all of a sudden one day it will be easy and satisfying. You will lose weight, become healthier and if you lift weights you’ll radically transform your body composition.

I’m week 1 and really feeling it. Bad gut and yes cravings, I’m trusting you so will go to week 2.

508 days and haven’t looked back. Family is coming for dinner soon (not my decision) and not looking fwd to having to plan. Meat is just too easy and so not boring. Thx Max.

Took me six weeks to adapt to a low carb lifestyle, but for three years it’s going smoothly now with mostly animal based products, berries and nuts. I do tolerate dairy products well so I kept them in my diet. Good luck to all of you on your journey as well!

I am glad you realized that it takes no will power to be carnivore. Once you eat enough meat you will want nothing else!!

Basically sugar is like a drug, it provides pleasure! It can be quite hard to starve out those cravings! I just ate quite possibly the best steak(rib eye) of my entire life with no exaggeration! OMG it was so good, it's fat was buttery smooth all on it's own!

Max thanks for your great videos. They're full of very good information. I'm almost 73 and I've been on the carnivore diet for about a year and a half it's really helped me out in a lot of ways I'm back to the weight of my 25 year old self and the waist size I was when 25 years old. I don't know how old you are but you look like about the 25 year old range. You might let your viewers know that the older you are the longer it might take to have the results you're hoping for. If you've been abusing your body with the wrong kinds of food for 70 some years like me it takes your body a little longer to adjust. I've had some excellent results and I'm looking forward to some more improvements. It's taking me a little longer than it did you. Again thanks for the great videos keep up the good work

One thing I wish I knew was that smoke is a consistently good seasoning. Also flames on meat is another consistently good seasoning. Salt is good too, but can get boring. Keep it up!

Look up oxalate dumping. Its why you don't feel good when you first start and can continue for weeks. It does go away, but its not fun for most people.

I was a big cheat over exmas time and celebrating the new year plus no gym for 2 weeks. It cost me nearly 3 kgs. 6th January got back on track and also started back at the gym. At 74 I wont me making that mistake again. Carnivore has done me the world of good. Listening to this video is very encouraging for me. Infact all your videos are awesome. Thank you Max.

Good podcast Max! I always enjoy what you have to say.

For anyone experiencing weight loss stalls, 72-hour Sardine fast helps or a 24-hour butter fast.

No, when you first start Carnivore just like anything else it is a learning and un-brainwasuing experience. The key is too stick with it and dont listened to quack doctors. Eventually you learn everything you need to for your body and brain. I am in for almost two years and it is the only way to fly.

💯💯💯 I want to love proper coffee again but I just can't go back to making poor choices. Carnivore changed me for the better. I've developed high standards & I love it! I've never felt & looked better! 😁 Thank you for sharing your experience! 💖

Dr Anthony Chaffee experienced a similar personal energy depression when he ate breaded chicken while he was living in England, as to Max German did after eating trace amounts of seed oils on his steaks while in Indonesia!

"If I do something, and I like it, then I'll do it to excess". That's the story of my life Max - I just don't have an off switch. That's how I got to be obese when still in my 30's. Now at least I don't crave soda drinks at all and my interest in junk food has dropped dramatically (but I still miss coffee a bit). It's still early days on carnivore for me so I'm sure things will get better.

Thanks Max, on day 29, still getting tired, and constipated ...from NZ

Steak and eggs, does it for me. I haven't stopped coffee either. One thing new is how much more I smell things.
